Transmission went out due to a hardened stove pipe gm# 24202422. The part became defective (eaten up). Transmission shop stated that it shouldn't have worn out so fast.
Several components have prematurely deteriorated calling into question safety of other related components. The car is 3 years and 6 months old, but has less than 29,000 miles. The problems all seem to deal with rubber (or similar material) components. The engine intake manifold is leaking. The left side axle seal and cover on the transmission is leaking. The serpentine belt was already cracking and needed to be replaced. (the serpentine belt is available for inspection, if so desired).
